Timberwolves Look To Stay Strong At Home
The Minnesota Timberwolves play host to the Denver Nuggets at Target Center on Tuesday evening.

This marks the second game of a two-game home stand for the Timberwolves (25-25), as they will look to carry over the momentum from a win in their last game and add to their, 14-10, home record. Karl-Anthony Towns leads the team, averaging 24.4 points, 9.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 steals per game. Anthony Edwards is averaging 22.7 points, 5.1 rebonds, 3.7 assists and 1.6 steals, while D'Angelo Russell is averaging 18.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 1.0 steals per game. The Timberwolves are averaging 111.6 points per game. They are giving up an average of 110.6 points against, while allowing opponents to shoot an average of 45.3 percent from the field.

Meanwhile, this marks the fifth game of a six-game road trip for the Nuggets (28-21), where they are undefeated so far. The Nuggets have won their last five games in a row and will look to keep the streak going to build on their, 15-12, road record. Nikola Jokic (toe) leads the team with dominant numbers, but he is listed as questionable for action on Tuesday. Aaron Gordon is averaging 14.7 points, 5..6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. Will Barton is averaging 15.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.2 assists, while Monte Morris is averaging 12.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists, per game. The Nuggets are averaging 109.0 points per game, while shooting an average of 47.1 percent from the field, which is fourth best in the league.
